Words and music for thirty-seven of the most beloved traditional lullabies are gathered in this lavishly illustrated songbook. From the enduring €œRock-a-Bye Baby€ to the winsome €œBrahms€ Lullaby€ to the amusing €œLittle Boy Blue,€ each song is thoughtfully matched with works of art from the Metropolitan Museum€s vast collections. Paintings by Vincent van Gogh and Mary Cassatt, a photograph by Eliot Porter of his infant son, and an Eskimo stone carving of a mother and child are among the many works that grace the pages of this stunning book.
